Epic Games Announces #FreeFortnite Cup, Last Chance for Every Platform to Play With Each Other
By Nathan Fusco

Epic Games announced the #FREEFORTNITE Cup which will be the last time every platform will be able to play with one another. Since Google and Apple have removed the game from the app stores, everyone's current version of the game will not update, meaning when Chapter 2 Season 4 hits on Aug. 27, mobile players will be left behind.
That's why Epic Games wants to continue to put pressure on Apple and give players a chance to compete in a cross-platform tournament.
All of your friends. Fabulous prizes. And one bad apple. We’re droppin the #FreeFortnite Cup on August 23.
